I ASKED GOD
I asked God to grant me patience.
God said, No. Patience is a by-product of tribulations;
It isn't granted, it is earned.
I asked God to give me happiness.
God said, No. I give you blessings.
Happiness is up to you.
I asked God, to spare me pain.
God said, No. Suffering draws you apart from worldly
cares and brings you closer to me.
I asked God, to make my spirit grow.
God said, No. You must grow on your own,
but I will prune you to make you fruitful.
I asked for all things that I might enjoy life.
God said, No. I give you life so that you may
enjoy all things.
I ask God to help me LOVE others,
as He love me.
God said...Ahhh, finally.
Suggestion:
"Stop telling God how big your storm is.
Instead tell your storm how big your GOD is."
